A new day.

Under the leadership of He Mengqi, Chen Jing and Kong Xue entered Zhongnan Mountain.

Zhongnan Mountain has been a famous mountain since ancient times and is known as the most blessed land in the world. It is steep and beautiful, like a beautiful painting screen, with dangerous terrain and rugged roads. There are five large valleys, more than a hundred small valleys, and hundreds of miles.

In "Zuo Zhuan", Zhongnan Mountain is called "the danger of the nine provinces". The Chang'an County Chronicles written by the Song Dynasty recorded: "Zhongnan stretches across the south of Guanzhong, starts from Qinlong in the west and ends at Lantian in the east, and is 800 miles apart. People in the past said that the big mountain was beyond Taihang, and the other ones were as good as Zhongnan.'

Let me talk about the "hermit culture" it brought, in addition to the allusion of Zhongnan shortcut, there are also many extremely famous hermits and masters in the mountains, both of which are Buddhist and Taoist.

Taoism, such as the legendary Chunyang Zhenren Lu Dongbin.

Buddhists also have the pride of Kumarajiva who has cultivated a golden body.

There are also famous Taoist masters in modern times who wrote "The Origin of Qi Body", and lived to be 104 years old, with the Taoist name Mi Jingzi.

These masters are all well-known. In addition to them, there are also masters who are not famous in Zhongnan Mountain.

About 15 years ago, a couple met a hermit master in Zhongnan Mountain to teach medical skills. Now they have opened a medical clinic in the mountain, and they don’t accept any money for treatment.

It can be seen that there are indeed real hermit masters in Zhongnan Mountains.

It’s a pity that it’s not easy to see them, just as He Mengqi said, you need to look at the fate.

"Sister Xue, if we can meet those hermit masters, I must ask them about their perceptions of life. I will be quite confused about life now."

On the way up the mountain, He Mengqi "occupied" Kong Xue, and walked with her and said to her with some expectations.

Kong Xue smiled and asked, "What are you confused about?"

"That's too many, you will have a job, a love, a dream, or something in the future."

Chen Jing was a little funny when he heard this, and couldn't help but say, "Student He, you can understand the confusion you said as you grow older. I guess the masters are too lazy to answer you."

To put it bluntly, He Mengqi's confusions are actually quite childish, or to many people, these can be said to be happy confusions.

At least she doesn't have to worry about life.

"Is that true?" He Mengqi responded with a slight understanding and asked Kong Xue again: "Sister Xue, what do you want to ask when you see the master?"

Kong Xue shook her head gently: "I have nothing to ask, because I have nothing to be confused about now."

As he spoke, the eldest sister turned her head and looked at her big boy, with happiness and sweetness in her eyes.

She really has nothing to be confused about. In the future, she will marry Chen Jing, and then have children for him. She will live a happy and stable life for the rest of her life. She is really not confused at all, only longing.

He Mengqi nodded and said, "I don't know what the master looks like. Will he be as fairy-like and talented as he acted in a TV series?"

"It seems that it should be no different from ordinary people." Chen Jing said.

"Ah? Brother Chen, have you ever seen a master?"

Chen Jingying said: "I have seen one, he is a monk."

"Really? Where is it? Is it easy to find?" He Mengqi's eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked.

"It's easy to find. It's in the Great Buddha Temple in Bowu Mountain, Hubei Province. His Dharma name is Wuyu. He can also decipher the pilgrims. He is a real eminent monk." Chen Jing said of Master Wuyu, and he couldn't help but bring some respect in his words.

If Master Wuyu hadn't helped him, it would have been so easy for him to get it.

"Sister Xue, when will we go find that Master Wuyu together?" He Mengqi was so excited that she pulled Kong Xue and said.

Kong Xue replied: "Okay, I originally thought I had the opportunity to meet the Master Wuyu who asked for a visa."

The three of them chatted all the way and gradually went deeper into the mountains.

When he walked to noon, He Mengqi suggested taking a break and having something to eat.

After eating a few bites of bread, Chen Jing looked around at the surrounding environment. Their location is no longer in the scenic area with more tourists, but the road under his feet is still artificially built, and it is obviously a developed area.

I think there should be no real hermit masters nearby.

Just as Chen Jing was thinking this, he saw a man who was about fifty years old walking in the distance with a broom in his hand and wearing a sanitation work uniform.

"Uncle, wait a moment." He Mengqi shouted when she saw the sanitation worker.

The old man stopped and looked at the three of them, saying, "Young man, you have gone to the wrong place, travel to see the scenery and go to the other side."

He Mengqi waved her hands repeatedly: "Uncle, I'm not here to travel, we are here to find the Hermit Master."

"Heror Master?" the old man responded and said, "It's true that there is, but it's hard to find."

Chen Jing was slightly moved when he heard this and asked, "Uncle, have you ever seen a real hermit master on this mountain?"

"I have seen it, but I have swept the floor here for more than 20 years, and I have only seen it five or six times. There are many people who say they are hermits on the mountain, but some are here to escape reality, and some are here to cheat money. Only a small number of people really think of coming here to practice."

"But those who come to practice are not considered real masters, there are very few real masters."

Hearing this, Chen Jing also thought in his mind that since the descendants of the Husi clan might live in seclusion in the mountains for generations, even if they are not real masters, they would probably also belong to the type of hermit that is difficult to find.

At this time, the old man asked again: "Do you want to find someone who practices Buddhism or Taoism?"

"Is there any difference, uncle?"

The sweeping uncle replied: "The difference is great. The suffering of practicing Buddha is that in this life, the next life is to practice Taoism. Practicing Taoism is to achieve a certain state, practice Buddhahood and enter the world, and practice Taoism and avoid the world."

"If you look for those who practice Buddhism, you may still have a chance to find one, and it will be difficult for those who practice Buddhism."

When Chen Jing heard the words of the sweeping master, he subconsciously said: "This is what is called "It is easy to get a thousand monks, but it is hard to find one."

"Oh yes, it's rare that a young man knows this truth." The sweeping uncle looked at Chen Jing in surprise and praised him.

Chen Jing smiled and asked, "Uncle, do you know where on the mountain it is most likely to find those difficult hermits? It is not necessarily a real master, but the kind of hermits who live here for generations can do it."

He did not come to Zhongnan Mountain to visit experts.

The sweeper thought for a while: "You walk up the mountain and walk to places with fewer people. If you are lucky, you may see it. If you are not lucky, then even if you find the place where they live, they may not see you."

Afterwards, the sweeper didn't say anything to the three of them anymore, and walked up the mountain with a broom on his own.

Chen Jing hurriedly thanked him, and looked at the mountain with some expectations in his eyes. He hoped that today he could find descendants of the Husi clan who lived in seclusion in the mountains.

The three of them rested for a while and continued to walk up the mountain.
